Hi,
Is there anyone who can help me in this?
In Past, we had purchased some Extreme AP 7532 with External antenna model ML-2452-APA2-01(Black)
But now when I am going to purchased new AP 7532 from CDW, it shows white antenna. So,
I called CDW and tried to find out what model of antenna is coming with this AP, but they don't have any knowledge about that. They said talk to Extreme.
I have seen same type of antenna ML-2452-APA2-02(White).
So, I am confused what is the difference between ML-2452-APA2-01(Black) and ML-2452-APA2-02(white) antenna?
Which model of antenna should I purchased and what model of antenna is coming default with AP 7532 on CDW?
Thank you for your help.

Hello Ravi,

Here's a link to the antenna guide for your perusal: ANTENNA GUIDE

But to answer your question in regards to the difference between the ML-2452-APA2-01(Black) and ML-2452-APA2-02(white) antennas: They both have the same specs and are the exact same antenna except for the color they come in. If you prefer a black antenna go with 01 and if you prefer a white antenna go with 02 (AP color is white).

I do not believe the antennas are included with the AP, leaving antenna choice up to the customer, but you'll have to check with CDW on this.

Thank you,

Chris

Hello Ravi - the CDW website does reflect Mfg.Part: ML-2452-APA2-02 | CDW Part: 2889724 | UNSPSC: 43221706

Here is the link where I found this information:

Hope this helps?

Hello Ravi,
The External antenna model ML-2452-APA2-01(Black) is not longer available.

External antenna P/N: model ML-2452-APA2-01(Color Black) – has been discontinued…
Discontinued description = Black Antenna: 2.4/5 GHz, Indoor: Type: Dipole (Paddle): Gain: 3dBi/2.4GHz, 4dBi/5GHz: Beam Width: E-Plane: 35 degrees, H-Plane: 360 degrees: Connector RP-SMA Male

Noting The Replacement Antenna ML-2452-APA2-02 referenced Color is White BUT also has the SAME exact antenna characteristics / description as follows:

The replacement External Antenna P/N: ML-2452-APA2-02, EXTREME NETWORKS, ANTENNA, INDOOR, DIPOLE, GAIN: 3DBI/2.4GHZ, 5DBI/5GHZ, BEAM WIDTH: E-PLANE: 35 DEGREES, H-PLANE: 360 DEGREES, CONNECTOR: RP-SMA MALE, WHITE

In this scenario you will be OK to order the ML-2452-APA2-02 as a valid antenna replacement

Hope this helps

Hi Ronald,
Thanks for your reply.
I checked the installation guide and it says it support ML-2452-APA2-01 antenna model.
I didn't see ML-2452-APA2-02 in that list so, now it says I should purchase ML-2452-APA2-01 model of antenna.
But on CDW website under Antenna description it's not showing antenna model no.
